Our Products: Steel and Stainless
Carbon Steel
Steel is a high-tech material with a great future. Like no other comparable material it can be recycled without quality loss an infinite number of times, making a significant contribution to resource conservation. But, above all, steel is a material with extraordinary potential for innovation. Steel is also a dynamic material, as shown by the fact that more than half the steels in the ThyssenKrupp product mix were developed in the past 10 years.
From food cans and electric motors, earthmoving machinery and dumpster trucks to household appliances and construction elements, many everyday items would not be possible without steel.
ThyssenKrupp Steel is Germany’s leading producer and No. 2 in Europe. Its product portfolio includes hot strip, cold strip, coated products, electrical steel and heavy plate in a broad spectrum of grades.
The range of steel grades extends from drawing, deep drawing and special deep drawing grades to high-strength grades through to multiphase steels with extremely high tensile strength and non grain oriented electrical steel.
Rising demand for corrosion resistant steels is met by ThyssenKrupp Steel with a wide range of coated products. Hot dip galvanized, hot dip aluminized, GALFAN® and GALVALUME® coated, electrolytically galvanized as well as zinc-nickel coated strip and sheet are produced at modern state-of-the-art facilities. A wide range of grades and sizes is available.
ThyssenKrupp Steel is a leader in technology and innovation. Its NewSteelBody® is an outstanding feat of engineering that reduces fuel consumption and demonstrates the enormous potential of steel in automotive applications. Although it is 24 percent lighter than a current production chassis, it provides the same or better rigidity and crashworthiness at comparable cost thanks to an intelligent combination of modern materials, high tech design and sophisticated production techniques.
ThyssenKrupp Steel, a world market leader in laser welded blanks, produces these customized steel blanks for specialized automotive applications.
